Modularity is not new in shipbuilding and takes many forms and concepts. In this article we write about how ship design and software can offer navies flexibility and adaptability to reconfigure to changing operational tasks and be adaptable to future threats and new technology adaptation. Ultimately, our mission and our vision is to enable navies to reap the benefits of modularity.

The US Marine Corps has selected Birdon’s advanced Heavy Landing Craft - H260 design to be part of a test and evaluation exercise focused on the missions it envisions Marines executing in the future. The H-260, a long-range, shallow draft, independent vessel, shares a common lineage to Birdon’s proposed Heavy Landing Craft for the Australian Army LMV-H. It embodies Birdon’s extensive knowledge of the Indo-Pacific’s demanding area of operations, both sea states and landing conditions, and Birdon’s understanding of the US Marine Corps and Australian Defence Force littoral warfare concepts. Looking outwardly similar to many oil and gas offshore support vessels, but with integrated signature reduction features, the 260-foot-long craft features a payload of 440 short tons, deck space of 8,000 sq ft, the ability to accommodate 72 Marines and 26 crew, a range of over 5,000nm, and a draft of only 6.5 feet allowing it to access a far larger proportion of beach and riverine offload locations than similar sized vessels. Its inherent robustness and resilience enable the H-260 to adapt to a wide range of mission profiles and sustain multiple deployments. The aft loading and forward enclosed ramps enable rapid load transfer while adding flexibility to cope with a wider range of landing sites. Its forward wheelhouse and accommodation are distanced from the noise and vibration of the propulsion systems, and combined with the proprietary bow reduces pitching moment and accelerations on embarked personnel, all of whom have bunks, delivering an enhanced habitability. Crew and commanders have extensive visibility for all operational activities. Birdon’s experience in the engagement and successful execution of major US Defence programs provides a solid foundation for its partnership with the MCWL. Our CEO Jamie Bruce said "We're honoured that our Heavy Landing Craft H-260 design was chosen for the US Marine Corps Warfighting Lab's mission testing." This partnership is a testament to Birdon’s track record in delivering the required outcomes for our clients across the US and Australia through an unwavering focus on designing operationally superior vessels that meet the needs of our customers now and into the future. #MakeItHappen #BirdonAmerica #LandingCraft #USmarinecorps

I help Industry Owners to design products for construction and material handling equipment's without wasting time in local market | Industry Product Design Specialist

Vertical landing, also known as Vertical Takeoff and Landing (VTOL), is a remarkable feat of engineering that allows aircraft to lift off from and touch down on vertical surfaces without the need for a runway. The engineering principles behind vertical landing vary depending on the type of aircraft, but they generally involve a combination of thrust vectoring, lift augmentation systems, and advanced flight control systems. #steelfabrication #construction #design #alsafriksteel

We need to move forward on shipbuilding projects like this, however, we already know the industrial base can't keep up with current demand. Some of the smaller US yards could potentially help here, or we can outsource to a partner nation. In the interim, I think we should examine capabilities to help close the ship-to-shore connection faster. I believe working with companies like @navier and @candela we can modify amphibious vehicles or even LCUs to operate with hydrofoil to increase stability, speed, and safety. These conversions would draw on a different segment of the industrial base while necessary investments and improvements are made to shipbuilding capacity.

curious about more details on our recent navy demo? check out the blog post
We recently had the honor of participating in the US Navy Advanced Naval Technology Exercise (ANTX) as part of their Coastal Trident Program - and it went swimmingly! Across nearly two weeks of surveying we successfully mapped targets including an outfall pipe, a sunken plane, barge and tugboat, a piling and various objects placed on the seafloor by the Navy. Read more about our time in San Diego & check out some of the data we collected while we were down there: https://lnkd.in/gU8qaWgy

What is so special about Submarine Sonar Watch or Submarine Shark Watch? Submarine Sonar Watch, also known as the "Shark Watch", is a highly advanced sonar system developed by the Russian Navy for its submarines. It's considered one of the most advanced and powerful sonar systems in the world. Here are some of its impressive features: 1. Wide-area coverage: The Shark Watch can detect and track multiple targets simultaneously, including ships, submarines, and even aircraft, within a wide range of up to 500 kilometers (310 miles). 2. High-resolution imaging: The system uses advanced sonar technology to provide high-resolution images of the seafloor, allowing Russian submarines to detect and avoid underwater mines, wrecks, or other obstacles. 3. Target recognition: The Shark Watch can automatically identify and classify targets, including their size, speed, and course, making it easier for Russian submarines to detect and engage enemy vessels. 4. Advanced signal processing: The system's advanced signal processing algorithms allow it to reject background noise and interference, improving its accuracy and reducing false alarms. 5. Networked capability: The Shark Watch can be integrated with other Russian naval systems, such as radar and communication networks, to provide a comprehensive picture of the surrounding environment. The Shark Watch is considered a significant improvement over previous Russian submarine sonar systems, offering enhanced detection capabilities, improved target recognition, and increased situational awareness. Its advanced technology makes it a valuable asset for the Russian Navy, particularly in the context of modern naval warfare.

This is something Australia should consider acquiring. Chinese AGIs come south every major Australia/US exercise and they are also common in some parts of the world such as the Baltic, Mediterranean and East Asia. Such vessels open up access opportunities through proximity and have persistence that aircraft do not have. Obviously vulnerable in war (like SURTASS-E equipped vessels), but there is a lot that can be achieved in peace or out of range from adversary weapons (like SURTASS-E equipped vessels).
On November 15 in Karlskrona, the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV - Försvarets materielverk) handed over the SIGINT ship HMS Artemis to the Swedish Armed Forces. On the same day, steel cutting for the production of the hull of the second SIGINT ship for the Polish Navy began in Gdansk. https://lnkd.in/gnwFGFxH
